Lake District rescuers save sick dog and its owners carrying pooch down boulder field
The “very friendly” canine and its two owners were attempting to cross Scree by the lakeshore of Wastwater yesterday evening when it suddenly became ill and refused to move further. Wasdale Mountain Rescue Team were sent to offer assistance with crews setting off on foot and in a lifeboat.
A three hour operation ensued in which crews passed the dog between each other to get it safely onto the boat along with its concerned owners. A spokesperson for the rescue team said: “The team were alerted to help two walkers and their dog who were attempting to cross the Screes by the lakeshore of Wast Water. At the start of the last boulder field their dog became unwell and refused to move further.“We were able to help by sending some team members by foot and also launching our boat.
Commenting on the evening sky, they added: "Unfortunately despite chasing the rainbow in a very picturesque setting, no pots of gold were found during this callout."
